If part of it is made in the United States and part of it on location outside the United States, does the rate drop to 50%?

These last 2 presidents have been such embarrassments to this once proud country.

How does that work? Will a foreign film cost twice as much to see?
I can see this being a target against the Vancouver/UK movies being made by Hollywood recently.

Does the distributor pay twice the price for the right to present in the U.S.?
Is it based on ticket sales?
Does Tom Cruise now have to jump out of every helicopter twice?

He apparently thinks it'll stick it to Gavin Newsom (given the language in his post).

I just don't understand how you even implement something like this. And if you do, like always, WE are the ones who end up paying the increased cost due to tariffs. It's just so, so stupid.

ETA: A far more logical way to increase production in the US is to push for states to provide filming incentives.

"People have said maybe I should be in the James Bond movies. I've been in a lot of movies, a lot. They say I'm a great actor, I dunno. I don't have time to be James Bond. But maybe "M", or "Q". Maybe not "Q". We don't like the LGBTQ, do we, very bad people. Maybe I could be "M" and Pete Boot-uh-judge could be "Q", I dunno..."

Our music industry is being robbed blind by this so called BRITISH INVASION caused by Sleepy Joe's OPEN BORDERS. The Beatles? BAD haircuts, not so great for American jobs! A total DISASTER for real American music. The best music in the world is American!!! Elvis!!! Sinatra!!!

Therefore we are gonna put a 100% tarrif on every Beatles song, album, even the t-shirts. Because America FIRST means American MUSIC first. We’re bringing back guitars, not sitar!!!

The Beatles made billions off us! BILLIONS. But where were they when the GREAT Jerry Lee Lewis needed a break? When Marvin Gaye was building America’s soul? No help, just mop-tops, DRUGS, and noise.

We're putting America back on the charts folks! The British Invasion is OVER, folks. It’s OVER. We’re not gonna let Abbey Road run over Main Street anymore!!! Thanks you for your attention in this matter. MAKE AMERICAN MUSIC GREAT AGAIN" President Don John
